Finally....I started this blanket last year August. My first post about it is here.
I put it away a few times and left it...so I cannot say how long in total it took me to make.
I had plans for it being huge...enveloping my whole family as we sat cuddled under it on my bed on a Saturday morning playing board games...
sadly this did not happen...
I gave in and decided to call it quits and make it into a little lap blanket...
but it is still cute...
(and it wraps up one little member of our family quite snugly as you can see!)
Now I am wrapping up blanket number two...again...I had high hopes for this one...but alas....another lap blanket....
(still to come)
Blanket number three however SHALL be HUGE.
It will become the BIG blanket It is meant to be.
I know I can do it.
Come on..cheer for me! I need it!
I am much further than the above picture...I am not on row 25 (one row counts as two rows of the same color, so technically I have done 50 rows)...

Well done Bonnie! Even a small blanket is a huge achievement in my mind! I get bored so quickly so I don't think I will contemplate making one! Love the colours you've used in all 3!
I actually prefer lap blankets/robes over big heavy blankets...so darn cozy. The colors for your livingroom blanket go so well with your chairs/lovesets! The second one I love equally as well and the soft colors look just perfect for staying in bed (you know on those rainy days) reading a book. The bright colors in your new blanket look great and I like the new pattern. I know it seems like it's taken a long time...but I think you've done a great job considering how busy you always are...great job woman...pat yourself on the back ;)
